More Voting for the Magazine for the Toronto Cyclists Union

The first poll was inconclusive (no entry getting more than 22% of the vote), so the vote for the possible name of the Magazine for the Toronto Cyclists Union is going to a Round Two, with only 6 choices:
I've emailed the Cyclists Union already that "Ring & Post" should actually appear as "Post & Ring" as that is not only the name of Toronto's BikePosts, but was how it was phrased in the original submission.On January 31st, we posted a poll to help name Toronto’s new bicycle magazine. Published by the Toronto Cyclists Union, the magazine is set to launch this spring during Bike Month.
Over 1,200 people voted and over 100 passionate comments were posted. Opinions were mixed and none of the names surpassed 22% of popular support. So, let’s move on to round two. Velove, Velocipede, Cog & Spinster have been eliminated from the race. Due to popular demand, we’ve added a new suggestion: Ring & Post.
The Poll and more on Spacing Toronto.
Ring and Post sounds better and is more commonly used by a 3 to 1 margin according to Google.
Phonetically it makes more sense -- Ring slides into And while Post has a hard ending and doesn't sound as nice before the And.
I respectfully disagree with you, as does the City of Toronto, Blogs, and the Media.
